This & That for February...
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Well it’s already February 14…can you even believe it? I’ve been working on this post for several days now but life has been busy so it’s taken a while! It’s one of several posts I’ll be adding today (I finally found a block of time to work) and I hope you enjoy!
This post is filled with things I’ve discovered recently…jewelry, food, fashion and so much more! I love sharing my discoveries so consider this post my Valentine to all of you!
Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day 〰️
I recently did a collaboration with Lois Hill Jewelry and fell in love with their beautiful designs! This jewelry is meticulously made mostly from sterling silver and the pieces are all handmade! Be sure to visit the website to see the whole collection!
Food
Why not make a charcuterie board for Valentine’s Day! Pair it with a glass of Champagne and you’ve got a match made in heaven! I made this delicious fabulous board on an olive wood heart shaped board from Williams Sonoma! I love to have a collection of boards and platters so my creations can have different looks!
Salmon is one of my favorite foods and I seriously think I could eat it every night! When I saw this recipe for Honey Mustard Roasted Salmon with Caesar Roasted Potatoes from Half Baked Harvest, I immediately put it on my list to try!
Fashion
These Nike sneakers are my new favorites! They’re canvas and I just love the color!
Decor
I don’t go crazy with the Valentine’s Day decorations, but a bowl of Hershey kisses is the perfect touch!
Tropical Vacay
After being in Miami during January, I’m so ready for another beachy, warm getaway and this swimsuit and coverup are perfect for lounging by the pool or sitting by the ocean! Doesn’t that sound amazing?
Romantic Movies
Baldy and I celebrated Valentine’s Day night before last because he’ll be out of town tomorrow. I decided to stay home to be close to my mom who isn’t doing well right now. I still want to have some kind of little celebration tomorrow evening so I’ll go and visit my grandsons and then come home and watch a movie and maybe drink a glass of Champagne. I searched for the best classic romance movies ( some old and some not so old) and this is what I came up with…I love them all and they are all quite different! Which one is your favorite!
Miscellaneous Fabulousness
Here are a few other things I’ve found while perusing the interweb…I hope you like them as much as I do!
I discovered Krystal Bick on Instagram and her page is artsy and beautiful! And then…I found her blog called This Time Tomorrow! I am a fan and I know you will be too!
Acts of Kindness for Yourself is something most of us fall short on! This article points out the extreme importance of showing yourself a little kindness!
Vicki Archer has redone her blog and it’s fabulous! She never fails to inspire!
Soup season is in full swing so be sure to check out all of the great soup recipes on Crazy Blonde Life!
We all self sabotage to some extent and I’ve been reading an excellent book by Brianna Wiest called The Mountain Is You that I’m finding extremely helpful! The best way I can describe it is profoundly helpful and insightful! Clearly, I’m really getting something from this book!
Last But Not Least!
I always have to include a boutique, just in case, like me, you want to do a little shopping!
